Your rights as a user
When processing your personal data, the KDG grants you, as a website user, certain rights:
- Right to information (Section 17 KDG):
You have the right to request confirmation as to whether personal data concerning you is being processed; if this is the case, you have the right to obtain information about this personal data and the information specified in detail in § 17 KDG. - Right to rectification and erasure (Sections 18, 19 KDG):
You have the right to request the immediate correction of inaccurate personal data concerning you and, if necessary, the completion of incomplete personal data.
You also have the right to request that personal data concerning you be deleted immediately if one of the reasons listed in detail in § 19 KDG applies, e.g. if the data is no longer required for the purposes pursued. - Right to restriction of processing (Section 20 KDG):
You have the right to request the restriction of processing if one of the conditions listed in Section 20 KDG applies, e.g. if you have lodged an objection to the processing, for the duration of any review. - Right to data portability (Section 22 KDG):
In certain cases, which are listed in detail in Section 22 of the KDG, you have the right to receive the personal data concerning you in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format or to request that this data be transferred to a third party. - Right to object (Section 20 KDG):
If data is processed on the basis of Section 6(1)(f) or (g) of the KDG, you have the right to object to the processing at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation. We will then no longer process the personal data unless there are demonstrably compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims. - Right of withdrawal (Section 8 (6) KDG):
If data is processed on the basis of Section 6(1)(b) of the KDG, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawing your consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of your consent prior to withdrawal. Upon withdrawal, further data processing will be discontinued immediately. - Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
In accordance with Section 48 of the German Data Protection Act (KDG), you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection regulations. For the Bavarian dioceses, this is
